2023 Fantasy Outlook
In a season where we saw offense decline as a whole across the league, Jimenez had a chance to shine at the plate in what was a loaded lineup on paper in Chicago. Like many things on the southside, things worked out poorly and Jimenez played in just 84 games on the season. The .295/.358/.500 slash line with 16 homers and 54 RBIs in essentially half a season shows what the young man is capable of when his body and mind are in sync. We should be thankful he did not injure himself in Spring Training with silly stunts, but the hamstring injury in mid April kept him out until early July. Once he shook off the rust, he hit .323/.391/.558 in the second half with 14 of the 16 homers. We do not know what baseball awaits us in 2023, but we do know that this young man has all the potential in the world even if we have yet to see it over the course of a full major league season.

Back in action in Cactus League
Jimenez (calf) will serve as the White Sox's designated hitter and cleanup batter in Wednesday's split-squad Cactus League game against the Royals, Daryl Van Schouwen of the Chicago Sun-Times reports.
ANALYSIS
Jimenez exited early in Monday's game against the Diamondbacks due to what the White Sox labeled as right calf camping, and fortunately for the 26-year-old, the issue wasn't anything more severe than that. After getting Tuesday off to rest and rehydrate, Jimenez is good to go one day later. In an effort to keep Jimenez healthy following consecutive injury-riddled campaigns, the White Sox could have him see an even larger share of his work out of the DH spot rather than the corner outfield in 2023. Jimenez made 50 starts as a DH and 30 as a left fielder last season.

How does Eloy Jimenez compare to other hitters?
This section compares his stats with all batting seasons from the previous three seasons (minimum 400 plate appearances)*. The bar represents the player's percentile rank. For example, if the bar is halfway across, then the player falls into the 50th percentile for that stat and it would be considered average.
* Exit Velocity and Barrels/PA % are benchmarked against 2019 data (min 400 PA) and Hard Hit Rate is benchmarked against last season's data (min 400 PA). See here for more exit velocity/barrels stats plus an explanation of current limitations with that data set.

Jimenez, who would have once been the No. 1 fantasy prospect in the game were it not for Vladimir Guerrero Jr., was a prime candidate to ascend into stardom after breaking out in the sprint 2020 season. However, he ruptured his left pectoral tendon while trying to rob a home run late in spring training and was initially handed a four-to-five month timeline. Jimenez returned in late July on the short end of that estimate, but he performed under his usual standards, both from a batting average and power standpoint. Even after returning from the pectoral injury, Jimenez dealt with minor groin and knee injuries over the final 10 weeks of the season. Dating back to his prospect days, Jimenez has seemingly always dealt with minor injuries, so durability is a weakness, particularly as long as the White Sox insist on playing him in the field -- he fits best at designated hitter. When healthy, he should still be seen as a four-category force, with 2020 representing his true talents much more than his injury-affected 2021.
